Great Father


My husband is such a great father to his girls and the hardest of all a great step-father to my kids.  My husband loves to BBQ so I used the bella BBQ fella.  I coloured him using one of my husband's favourite colours - green.  I was really pleased with how this card turned out. I used black card stock with "father" print background that I sewed onto the card.  I used one of my new edgers for the first time to get the diamond pattern cut out of black cardstock. This was the first time I was happy with how my grass turned out. My husband is still displaying this card on his work desk so I guess he liked it too.

Enjoy your pregnancy!


A friend at work announced her pregnancy and I was so thrilled for her. It brought back memories of when I was pregnant.  That time can go by so fast or slow depending on which number it is.  All I know is once you are done having kids, you realize how precious that time in your life really was.  I used Hanna stamps.  Since I didn't know what the sex of the baby was I used a little bit of both pink and blue.

Canada Eh! Happy Thanksgiving!

The Canadian Thanksgiving Weekend is almost here.  This is my Happy Thanksgiving card that I sent to my family members.  This past summer my sister and I went on a little shopping trip in Michigan.  We hit several awesome stores and I was able to find this cute Thanksgiving mouse and pumpkin stamp.  I coloured the image with Prisma colour pencils and gamsol. The little mouse is so cute!  When I found the Thanksgiving paper, I fell in love with it right away.  I used fall colours for the cardstock.  I topped the cards off with the orange Blessings Ribbon.  Happy Thanksgiving Canada!
